Late to this party…what kind of disk subsystems are you transferring to and 
from? I don’t see even ½ that when  going from SAS to SAS on the same machine. 
Then again it’s probably because I am going from RAID1 to RAID 1 and not 
multispindle RAID5 or 10…

Subject: [NTSysADM] 10Gb Ethernet

I'm just beginning to prepare the environment at $Work for the transition from 
VMware to Hyper-V.  Part of the exercise is implementing 10Gb Ethernet for the 
first time.

I work in the SMB space at a company with an IT staff of two.  Consequently, I 
don't get too jazzed about much in the way of infrastructure these days, but I 
gotta tell ya, it's slicker the greased owl sh** to see sustained file 
transfers on the order of 750MB/sec (without any network tweaking at all).

More info. as things progress, but, for today at least, it was was pretty cool 
throwing multi-GB files around in mere seconds.  (Heck, it was hard finding 
something big enough to test with!)
